Quinte Fishing

There seems to be a lot of different opinions/experiences on this topic. Sounds like it's all in the battery. So I'm assuming if the $10 attachment teamed up with whatever drill/battery Comit is using on an 8" Swedebore can compare with the Vexilar K-Drill, (20+holes on 1 battery) the drill/battery combo Comit is using sounds like it's the best.
Obviously ice thickness is a factor, but I'd be happy to get 5-8 holes on 1 battery.
Comit...do you know what size/power battery is on your drill??

Thanks

There's something wrong with that rod.
It has a bend in it!!!

Got the K-Drill out today. As advertised it drilled about an inch per second. Used a friends Dewalt (no extra handle) with 5 yr old batteries. Got 8 holes in 24" ice before it showed signs of slowing up (one battery). He admitted the batteries were not as good as when they were new. The auger itself was hugely expensive though. Oh well, I got it now I am certainly going to enjoy the ease of use and light weight (9 lb).

Here is my video. Weight correction with fish scales - 11 lbs.

Missed this a couple weeks ago....

The Battery is 18V X4 3Ahr Battery, kit came with two batteries so always have lots to spare for my neighbour on the ice if they need a hole...

Did 3 holes the other day on a back lake and the tip of the drill was under the ice (30"). I Just put that battery on the charger to get ready for tomorrow and the it has more than half a charge still. Have a sore wrist though as I did not put on the hammer drill handle for the extra grip and gave my wrist a good twist when it stuck at the bottom and I tried to loosen it in reverse. Ouch...

Good choice Comit.
I was also looking at this one with 4ah batteries. Only another $40.

Maybe next year we should organize a 1st Annual Auger Off Competition. Different categories, hand, electric, gas and maybe even spud.

I bought the Homedepot Rigid kit with the 3 AH batteries. Seemed like a good deal considering the 3 AH batteries were $120 each. Tested it out with the K-Drill at Huffs a couple of weeks ago and drilled about 6 holes in 16" of ice used one battery and still had some juice left. didn't land any fish but the happy with the performance of the drill and auger combo was good. The drill is fast, one inch per second...

I found some high quality drill battery at low price in this store
